Chapter 5, Problem 52P
|| in the previous problem, what would the answers in both cases be if there were friction and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the ice were 0.200?
51. | A light spring having a force constant of 125 N/m is used to pull a 9.50 kg sled on a horizontal frictionless ice rink. If the sled has an acceleration of 2.00 m/s2 , by how much does the spring stretch if it pulls on the sled (a) horizontally, (b) at 30.0° above the horizontal?

You find it takes 210 N of horizontal force to move an
unloaded pickup truck along a level road at a speed of
2.4 m/s. You then load up the pickup and pump up its tires
so that its total weight increases by 42% while the coefficient
of rolling friction decreases by 19%.
Part A
Now what horizontal force will you need to move the pickup along the same road at the same speed? The speed is low enough that you can ignore air
resistance.
Express your answer using two significant figures.

5. Suppose a body with weight W is pulled along a flat plane by a drag force
which acts alongside a string fixed to the body. If the string creates an angle
0 with the flat plane, then the drag force is
F =
sin 0 + cos 0
where the coefficient of friction is denoted by u. Note that u and W are
constants. Determine such a 0 for which F is minimum. Also evaluate that
minimum value.
Two masses are connected by a rigid link as shown in Fig. Q3. The masses are resting on
an inclined plane. The masses are then released. Considering the coefficient of kinetic
friction between the inclined plane and the masses A and B are 0.1 and 0.2 respectively.
3.
Compute by using Newton's second law
a) The acceleration of both masses.
b) The force in the rigid link and specify whether it is in tension or compression.
